Here under the scorching African sun...

GUNS FIRE, A WOMAN SCREAMS

..we've created the ultimate military boot camp.

Oh, my God.

With veterans of six of the world's fiercest special forces units,

22 of Britain's toughest civilians

are about to enter a fortnight of hell.

- Get up.
- I can't.

Get up, Flynn.

Each and every one of them believes they have what it takes

to make it to the end.

I've never quit anything in my life.

I really think I've got exactly what it takes to win the show.

I'm ready for it.

And standing in their way are former operatives from...

the South Korean special forces...

What is going on here?

Get up. You want to quit?

..the US Army's Green Berets...

If you throw up, stick it in your pocket, keep going.

- Argh!
- Argh!

..GROM from Poland...

Do not move, do not talk.

Two minutes, prepare your baggage.

..the South African special forces...

Get up. Get up. Today, I want it done now!

..the Australian SAS...

GUNS FIRE

Gas, gas, gas. Come on, come on, come on.

..and GIGN from France.

Fighting stance!

- ALL:
- Rarrr!

GUN FIRES

Living under a strict military regime,

our recruits will experience the unique selection methods

to understand the characteristics and skills required

to become a member of one of these elite units.

- Down!
- What's happening?

Who has the inner strength to make it to the end...

We're not going to stop until somebody quits.

..and to win?

Special Forces: Ultimate Hell Week.

What's going on?

You are in my world.

Under the instruction

of an operative from the US Green Berets...

You will address me as Sergeant, not sir,

that's cos I work for a living.

We are not going to stop until somebody quits.

..bodies were battered.

Argh! Ah!

As the pressure mounted,

Flynn proved himself to be a real contender.

Three, two, one.

Stewart couldn't take any more.

You tell me one more time you're going to quit, you're quitting.

- What's your answer, Stewart?
- Quit, Sergeant.

Okafor broke...

Okafor, talk to me, what's happening?

..which leaves 14 remaining in the process.

It's just after 7am, and the recruits have been taken

to an undisclosed location at the southern tip of Africa,

on the Atlantic Ocean.

Come to attention.

So far, they've endured six days of physical and mental punishment

under the command of three special forces veterans.

Now they await their next former elite operative.

As usual with our special forces expert, there is this moment...

..when they size up the recruits.

Everyone take a knee.

Take a knee!

From now on, when I tell you to drop,

you will drop into the thinking-man position.

The only thing that touches the sand

is the top of your head and your feet.

Your hands will be behind your back.

Drop!

My name is Lieutenant Ken Rhee.

I'm from South Korea.

From this point on, you are in my world, and I own you.

Established in 1954,

the Republic of Korea Navy Underwater Demolition Team,

known simply as ROK UDT, are a water-based special forces unit.

They've been deployed on anti-piracy operations

in the Pacific and Indian oceans,

as well as infiltration missions into North Korea.

Students need to prepare for a culture shock.

If they have a fear of water, God help them.

Allan!

Come over here.

You are now the class leader.

Do you know why you were chosen?

I do not know why I was chosen.

You are the oldest.

In Korea, the eldest makes you senior man.

261.

So far, recruit Allan

has asserted himself as a natural team leader

from the start of the process,

although he struggled with the physicality of the challenges.

I am worried my body might give out on me.

So, the brain's willing,

but the body might not carry me the whole way.

You will lead by example.

They will look up to you,

which means you will be physically more superior,

you will have leadership.

You will be a role model to them.

Open the bag.

Hold it up.

Listen to me carefully, you will place it on the shrine.

- Yes, sir.
- When you address me it will be Ak!

Do you understand?

Ak!

Good. Place it on the shrine.

Make it look good and pretty.

Selection for the South Korean UDT

is 60% water-based

and 40% on land over a ten-week period.

It begins with a Gosa ceremony

to bring good fortune

to see candidates through the recruitment process.

The pig in Korea stands for prosperity.

Good luck.

You are about to enter my world, enter my hell week.

Everybody get wet! Everybody in the water!

What is it that's going to be different about what you're doing?

Well, our training is going to consist of

a lot of water-type exercises

and that's what separates us from other units,

is being comfortable in the water.

They're going to be cold, wet and tired.

They'll also know how to swim.

At just seven degrees,

it's clear that not all recruits are comfortable in the ocean.

Water is something I'm completely petrified of.

Despite finishing second from last during the Memory Hill challenge,

under the Polish GROM veteran,

Palama put in a impressive performance in Last Man Standing,

at the hands of our US Green Berets...

..where she was the final remaining female.

Come on, then.

Physically and mentally,

I think I can just keep doing it

unless it's something that I'm completely petrified of.

Are you really able to think when your face is in the sand like that?

First ten seconds, you're thinking about the pain, after that,

the pain is not going to go away,

so they're going to have to suck it up and be able to think.

If they can't, all they need to do is get up and say they want to quit.

This is our environment.

You'd better be comfortable in the water to get through this training.

Modelled on the real ROK UDT selection process,

this task is designed to identify who can handle the ocean.

Can you show them the bridge position, please?

Thank you. Drop.

Get back into the bridge position!

Flynn struggled during the sleep deprivation exercise

with the South African Recces veteran.

And after pushing his team-mates too hard

during rifle PT under the Green Beret...

Right, watch. Right.

..he ultimately won their respect in the final exercise.

See that line up there, straight between it, up to the top.

You're a good leader, big man.

You're a good leader, boy.

What I need to prove to myself,

a plimsolled ballerina from Edinburgh

can certainly strive to take on special forces.

Get back into the bridge position.

Don't let the water kick your ass.

I can't do it.

It's recruit Burch who's first to suffer in the surf.

I can't. I can't. My shoulder won't bend that way.

After putting in a strong performance with Rafal,

formerly of the Polish GROM, amateur boxer and father of three, Burch,

struggled under our Green Beret.

We need someone taller than me on the back.

- Burch...
- I'm lifting that on my own.

The reason I'm here, two of my kids have type one diabetes.

I keep telling them they can do anything

they want to do with their life.

Never give up. So I'm going to show them,

your dad's going to get tortured and he ain't going to give up.

Push-up position. Drop.

Feet on shoulders.

Feet on shoulders.

Better get it going.

You are losing my patience.

- And the other one.
- Go on.

Go on, get your feet up, man.

I'm choking!

Jesus!

What is going on here? Kick up. Kick up!

Allan, you're the class leader! Get up!

You're the class leader, get up!

Ordered into punishing positions,

it's team leader Allan who is suffering.

Push-up. It's just push-up.

Stop. I'm going to have to go.

And the ocean soon claims its first victim of the day.

Birch, I quit.

- Birch, I quit.
- Louder.

Birch, I quit.

- Get out of here.
- Birch has just quit. What?

How many you got?

- 13!
- Why?

Because this is tough.

What's happened, Birch, what's happened?

I've got an injury on my shoulder and it won't...

Them movements he's making us do, I can't.

Birch, I'm really frustrated for you,

because you've been increasingly strong.

I'm frustrated. I'm one of the strongest, I know.

It's just on my shoulder.

It's gradually getting worse.

Stand! Come on!

Stand up!

What is up with this class?

The water is absolutely freezing.

The positions they want us to be in

just make you feel like you're being drowned.

It's all about the temperature of the water.

Everybody, lie down on your back.

Head towards the surf. Link arms.

There you go.

Feel the water.

During prolonged exercise in the ocean,

if their body temperature goes below 32 degrees,

hypothermia is a real threat.

When I say "backs", your feet will touch the sand behind your head.

Backs!

Backs.

Backs.

Just six minutes later, another recruit quits.

- I quit.
- Name?

- Flynn.
- Go.

Flynn...

Stand together. What's this gap doing here?

I hit a wall. I probably hit a wall yesterday.

I was kind of in a position where I wanted to...

..try and get past it.

But this morning I was like, basically bugger this, man.

We already have two quitters.

Any more?

- Any more?
- ALL:
- Negative.

OK. Move on to the next one.

It's a bit of a shock to our systems, I think.

You throw this element in,

and it sends your brain working in overdrive.

The cold sets in.

You choke on a bit of water and panic sets in.

I will show you what the three-legged bear crawl is.

The three-legged bear crawl.

Hot-headed Ferguson has already encountered this drill

during his time with the former Polish special forces operative.

The bear crawl is horrible cos I've got big, long legs.

It's easier for the wee midgets.

Come on, Ferguson.

And his attitude has also landed him in trouble.

- Ferguson?
- Always in trouble at school,

that's probably part of the reason I was at the fighting, you know.

I had a really quick temper, a quick, flashy temper,

but I've managed to control it a lot through the years.

Have you got any problems?

- No.
- First position.

I'm here to give a good showing to Scotland.

The only other Scottish people here is a dancer and a woman,

so it's kind of all on my shoulders.

- Oh, man.
- Did I hear some bitching?

I think we have an attitude problem here.

Don't be bitching in front of the instructor.

If you want to bitch, don't let me see it.

- OK?
- OK.
- OK?

- OK, Ah.
- It's Ak.
- Ak.
- Louder!

- Ak!
- If you piss me off, I'll just drop you from the course.

Listen up, I will drop you...

..if you have an attitude problem.

- Is that clear?
- ALL:
- Ak!

Butts to heels.

HE SHOUTS

Keep it going. Come on.

Team leader Allan attempts to motivate

the recruits on the 300-metre crawl.

Go on, Fergie.

Bust a gut.

Do not be last.

But despite his best efforts, Ferguson still finishes last.

You just got beaten by a girl.

- How are you doing?
- No.

- No?
- Negative.

- Louder.
- Negative.

Louder!

Negative.

It really feels like you're doing everything in your power

to just break them, at this stage.

Well, the training is designed to be selection.

We really want to weed out the weak guys

and take on the guys that want to be seals.

So, in this case, they are trying to win something.

And that's what I'm looking for. Winners.

During selection and in the field,

ROK UDT operatives have one essential piece of kit

at their disposal.

The Inflatable Boat Small, known as the IBS.

So how important is the boat to your unit, then?

We're waterborne operators.

Maritime operations unit.

So boats, it's a symbol to us.

that's our bread and butter.

The water is our ally and it's where we come from.

You're all being divided into two teams.

Boat crew one and boat crew two.

The 12 remaining recruits

are divided by height into boat crew one,

the women, and boat crew two, the men.

Head carry.

Designed to test teamwork,

they'll compete in a 150-metre competitive duck-walk race,

carrying the 49 kg boat on their heads.

Listen carefully.

Butt to heels.

Keep squat. Do it.

- All the way down.
- Squat down.

Bust 'em!

Right, left.

Come on, move.

One...

We need to step at the same time.

- Right, left.
- Let's do it together.

Keep moving, guys.

On the men's team, Ferguson has been spotted cheating.

Pick your head up. Do not use your back.

What the f...are you doing?

Get your head under the tube.

Get your head under the...

Do you want to quit? Do you want to quit?

You're done. Quit. You're dropped.

- Ferguson? What happened, man.
- BLEEP.

I mean, Ferguson is raging at the moment, and I can understand why.

They've been pushed within an inch of their limits today,

and it feels like it was just too much.

He's been pushed to the point where he actually got in the face of Ken.

Thankfully, he's calming down.

Reorganise your crew. Hurry up, make it happen.

Right. Onyiuke and Blowes this side, then.

What caused you to snap?

I've got a bad temper. And when I lose my temper, I usually just snap.

But I'm kind of proud of myself in a way,

because a couple of years ago,

I would probably hit him or pushed him, or done something.

So I did well not to retaliate.

So I'm proud of myself for that.

- OK, down boat.
- Down boat.

Boat two lost three people already, and it's not even lunchtime.

How many people are going to be gone in the next 48 hours?

I think natural attrition,

the guys that hate it the most are probably gone.

But we've just got to stick tight and just pray

that he keeps us in there

for as little time as possible.

After dumping Ferguson...

..Ken restarts the race and it's a sprint to the finish.

Trust me, you do not want to lose on this race.

It will not be pretty.

Bust 'em!

- WOMEN:
- One, two, one, two...

The women start strong, counting out their steps.

Keep going!

Keep going!

But the longer legs of the men carry them to victory.

You've got to catch them!

Get over here.

Boat crew two. You won.

Congratulations. You will have a pleasant lunch.

Boat crew one, you lost.

Today, you will have lunch in the surf with the boat over your head.

- Is that clear?
- ALL:
- Ak.

It pays to be a winner. Prepare for lunch.

In Korean culture,

public humiliation is deemed the ultimate in disrespect.

Having to eat with that boat on their heads,

you are really pushing them.

It's more of a motivational thing.

You can see the other boat crew, relaxing, out in the sun, eating,

getting rested. And they're still in the surf

with the boats on their heads.

It's going to piss them off.

The next race, I'm sure they can win.

But the mood on the men's winning crew is far from celebratory,

as Blowes is coming to terms with the morning's departures.

They were mates. Birch and Fergie.

Both of them. So, yeah, it'll be different now,

a different sort of dynamic in the group.

Hoi! You, you, you and you.

- Stay behind.
- Having begun Ultimate Hell Week

in the bottom five after the first drill,

he quickly redeemed himself,

finishing first in the Concrete Block Run,

and has remained consistent since.

I always dreamed of being in the army when I was a kid.

It was like, posters on the wall.

I think I've got what it takes physically to get through this

because I'm an endurance athlete.

I've been running competitively for the last ten, 11 years.

Keep it going, man.

I don't think there's anything that would make me quit.

Just do what I have to do to get me through to the end of that day.

Every single day, I'm a day closer to going home to see my family,

so that's what I'm going to do.

Approaching six hours under the command

of a former South Korean special forces operative...

You will undress.

..the 11 remaining recruits prepare for the next exercise.

Man, if I were them,

I'd give up trying to predict what's going to happen.

They've been told to strip and line up.

This is going to get really messy.

This is my tidal pool.

The first exercise will be a breath-hold exercise.

With 60% of the ROK UDT selection being water-based,

recruits will need to demonstrate

that they're comfortable being underwater.

Don't half-ass it,

cos you can really get killed in this training evolution.

Three times, they'll be made to stand with their heads upside down

and fully submerged in the thinking-man position.

Each time they'll spend longer underwater.

Expect water to go in your noses and into your pretty little braids.

Yes, it stinks, but it's not the end of the world.

Those who fail this phase will be made to stand at the Wall Of Shame.

and will be in danger of being sent home.

Get into position.

When we become operators,

a lot of our operations involve infiltrating from the ocean.

We have to dive underwater, we have to swim on the surface.

If I want to operate with people who are competent,

they better be able to pass these tests.

Submerge.

Stand up.

After 20 seconds under water,

all the recruits make it through to the next round.

Submerge.

Wall of Shame. Go.

But after another 15 seconds,

Donoghue and Palama can't take it any longer.

The two women find themselves at the Wall of Shame

and on Ken's blacklist.

THEY SOB

Stand up!

After 30 seconds, Ken releases the recruits.

- Get them up.
- But worse is to come.

One more round. Submerge.

Stand up.

Congratulations. You've completed three rounds of the breath-hold.

Get out of the water. Go.

Everyone out of the water, quick!

I started, like, panicking with my breathing,

and then let some water in.

Then I had to come up then.

I think I probably had about five seconds to go.

Get back into formation.

You want to quit?

- No, Ak.
- What about you?
- Negative, Ak.

Your next evolution, you will retrieve a dive mask.

Recruits will have three attempts

to retrieve the goggles with their hands tied behind their back.

Failure will mean facing the Wall of Shame.

You are only allowed to use your legs to get you under...

..and your teeth to pick up the dive mask.

Are you laughing? Am I funny?

- No, Ak.
- I think you're laughing. Am I funny?

- No, Ak.
- Do you want to quit?

- Yes, Ak.
- Then quit. Say your name and say what you want to do.

I just can't go under the water, Ak,

with my arms tied behind my back.

Then quit. Say it.

I want to quit, Ak.

Go.

Does anybody else want to quit?

Palama is the first woman to leave today.

Hang in there, hang in there. Hang in there.

Earlier on today, you were saying

that you weren't comfortable in the water.

What is it about this that's made you walk away?

I just can't go under.

I find it really hard.

You get three tries.

Three tries to find your mask.

If you don't do it in three tries,

that is an automatic fail.

Boat crew one, enter the water.

First up, is Parrott...

Submerge.

..who succeeds on her second attempt.

Submerge.

Next is Downham...

..who struggles...

I will drop you.

Get under now.

..but also succeeds after two attempts.

Good job.

Surf instructor Thompson wastes no time

in collecting the goggles on her first go.

Good.

Mok is the first to fail, and sent to the Wall of Shame...

You are a failure.

Donoghue, you are a failure.

..quickly followed by Donoghue,

who is sent to the Wall of Shame for the second time.

Next up in the tidal pool, is boat crew two, the men's team.

Durant is unable to retrieve the goggles.

Wall of Shame.

Failed. Walk to the Wall of Shame.

Despite his best efforts, Blowes also fails.

Sparks is the first of the men to successfully collect the goggles.

Congratulations. Submerge.

Quickly followed by Onyiuke on his first attempt.

Good job.

Submerge.

Finally, team leader Allan is up.

After a poor performance this morning, he needs to impress Ken...

..but fails to retrieve the goggles on his first two attempts.

Final try.

Good job.

Recruits who were unsuccessful in the dive mask retrieval

have been made to hold an eight kg sandbag

as part of their humiliation.

Fight it. Come on.

The final phase is a 50-metre competitive swim

with their hands behind their backs.

If recruits' feet touch the sand, they're immediately disqualified.

Who will be the toughest one?

So listen carefully.

During actual ROK UDT selection,

recruits must swim with both arms and legs bound for 100 metres,

and is used to identify those who are fearless in the water.

Lean against the wall.

Are you ready?

- ALL:
- Ak.
- Bust 'em!

Onyiuke panics and his feet quickly touch the sand.

Stand up.

Allan and Thompson follow suit.

Stand up, Allan. Stay there.

Having represented Scotland at swimming,

Downham is ahead of Sparks and Parrott.

The race to impress Ken is well and truly on.

Sparks comes in first place...

Good job, stand up.

..followed by Downham.

Good job, stand up.

It looks like Parrott is struggling at the moment.

She is the last recruit to make it back in.

Good job, Parrott, stand up.

See you at base camp.

- Move.
- Ak!

After nine hours of water-based exercises, this phase is over.

It's been a really sort of wet and cold day.

I think I've sort of reached my lowest point

throughout the entire journey, so far.

I was closest probably to Palama in the group, and when she left...

..yeah, I kind of had to re-evaluate things,

but I had a good chat with Mok

after the second challenge,

and decided that I was just going to battle on.

Psychologically coping with the rapid loss of recruits

was really tricky.

That's not exactly a great sign of leadership, is it, you know?

During military training,

candidates burn an average of 4,500 calories per day.

Back at base, our recruits are desperate for their evening meal.

Take a seat at the dining table.

Boat crew one, you're on my left, boat crew two, you're on my right.

I prepared a very special feast for you.

In my country, it is customary to eat the pig's head

after the gosa ritual.

I'm going to call out a few names.

Anyone who failed a task earlier today will not be getting fed.

Go, now.

The rest of you, enjoy your meal...

..enjoy the night.

Instead, they must face the consequences.

Your mission today...

..is to fill this jar up with white rice.

You only get to use chopsticks.

Nothing else.

To make their task harder, the white rice is mixed with brown rice.

If you don't complete the task,

of course, there'll be another punishment,

and that's going to be miserable, so choose wisely which you want to do.

- Is that clear?
- ALL:
- Ak!

Shrug?

How about you get into the thinking-man position? Drop.

How about you stick it up your arse?

He said to me, "Get in to the thinking-man's position,"

which I've been in quite a substantial amount of today,

which I've got a real sore head from doing it.

And he wanted me to do it on the concrete, so I just said, no.

I've just had enough of him, simple as that.

One hour later, Ken returns to the rice-picking recruits.

Stand up.

This test was designed to break your will.

Obviously, it broke Blowe's.

You all saw that. You have earned

the privilege to go to sleep, to eat.

Tomorrow morning, I'll see you again.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Can we have a group hug now?

- I thought we were going to be here all night.
- Well done, guys.

Guys, that just goes to show you never know what's coming next.

Never quit.

If you have a bad attitude, I'll find a way to break them.

It's only a matter of time.

People with good attitudes, like these guys,

there are those certain groups of people,

you can do whatever you can to them, break them all day long,

but they'll still be laughing at the end of the day.

Why? It's their attitude, it's their heart, going strong.

that's what I want to see, and that's what I saw tonight.

After a bruising 24 hours under Ken's instruction,

four guys and one girl have exited the process.

- It's not normal, is it? That's not normal.
- Can you see them?

Are they as bad as they feel, or not really?

I think the fact that there's

more girls then there are guys

and we started off with way more males in the whole process

than there were females, just shows how flipping strong they are.

The bruises are from Sparks, just trying to claw at me, as well.

Don't say that on camera.

I have done no such thing.

It's day two with Lieutenant Ken Rhee,

former operative of the South Korean special forces,

and the recruits aren't expecting any let up.

Got the whole beach in here.

No, the last day of each instructor has proven to be,

like, absolute hell.

Allan, who was made leader by Ken...

What we'll do, it's 30 minutes past,

we'll give each other two more minutes.

..will need to demonstrate his team motivational skills

and a selfless attitude that is expected of his role

in order to stay off the lieutenant's radar today.

It's leading adults.

It's a piece of cake, piece of cake.

I've never heard one of them say a bad word against the other, at all.

Even muttering under their breath, even as a side comment.

But Allan's approach to running the team

has begun to rub some of the other recruits the wrong way.

I can't deal with it.

- I can't deal with it either.
- He told us to "man up" earlier, and that...

I thought I was going to explode,

because there's more women here than men now,

so I think we've proved they need to "women up". Yeah.

Coin the phrase, let's do it.

Oh, God, I was about to hit the roof.

Someone was going to get hurt, and it wasn't going to be me.

Just after 8am,

the recruits are led to the parade ground by directing staff

to await instructions from Ken.

- Did everybody get a good night's sleep?
- ALL:
- Ak.

Good. Because today, is where the real training starts.

Yesterday was a cake walk.

In front of me there are tyres...

..yes, three large, three medium, three small.

We will do a race.

With their tyres, recruits will race 1,400 metres

to the bottom of base camp and back,

dragging their tyres up a 300-metre elevation to the finish.

It is an individual event.

It would be wise of you to take the smallest tyre.

You will pay...

..if you are anything but first place.

The crews are about to race for their tyres,

and if I was one of them,

what I'd be going for is one of the smaller ones

because they race down the hill

and straight up follows this.

Are you ready?

- ALL:
- Ak!
- Bust 'em.

Sparks, Durant and Onyiuke each take the large 52kg-tyre.

Allan opts for the medium 70kg-tyre, along with Downham and Thompson,

while Mok, Donoghue and Parrott

take the smallest eight-kg tyres.

What is the reason for this particular evolution?

It's a two-point evolution,

so the first part is about making decisions.

They get to pick whatever tyre they want.

If they are noble enough, they'll choose the biggest tyre.

They made the right decision. With the exception of the class leader,

which pissed me off, because he's the class leader,

regardless of his physical fitness level or his age.

So you would have expected him to go for one of the biggest tyres,

regardless of his capabilities?

That's what the leader has to do, make sacrifices,

but he didn't do that.

Donoghue takes the early lead, with a smaller eight-kg tyre...

..closely followed by Mok, and Parrott, pulling the same weight.

Allan is first of the men, in fourth place,

with the medium 17-kg tyre.

Trailing at the back and making slow progress are the rest of the men,

with the 52-kg tyres.

With the bigger tyres I expect them to quit,

because they did a long hike up the mountain,

and maybe I could get somebody to quit.

Donoghue is the first to reach the halfway point and starts her ascent.

Downhill good, uphill bad.

So far firefighter Donoghue has suffered under the command

of every special forces veteran she's faced...

..be it drinking the stomach juice of a springbok...

Thank you, Colonel.

..or heavy lifting in log PT, under our Green Beret.

I'm only little, but appearances can be deceiving.

I'm not an extreme sports person.

I spend time with my kids.

I do a bit of fitness. I've got a physical job.

I do the same as what all the guys do at work.

I never give up.

I wouldn't be here if I didn't think I could win it.

Donoghue, you are looking good.

- Thank you.
- Keep it up!

- You are in first place, aren't you?
- Ak!

Off the back of what was a pretty tough day for Donoghue yesterday,

today, she's the first one in with her tyre.

She made it back, and she looks pretty happy with herself as well.

First one in, Donoghue.

- First one in.
- First one.

She makes it back in a time of ten minutes and five seconds.

Allan, canter, don't lose to a girl.

Don't lose to a girl.

I want you to catch Parrott.

Let's go. Catch Parrott.

Come on, she's running, she's running on the left leg.

Come on, so close, so close, let's go.

Not over yet. Come on! Cut through, Parrott, go.

Next is Parrott. With the smaller eight-kg tyre,

beating Allan to second place, with a time of 11 minutes 26 seconds.

They are followed by Mok, Thompson and Downham.

Anything other than first place

is rewarded with the thinking-man's position,

where candidates will have to remain until the final recruit

crosses the finish line.

After yesterday, I felt like I needed to redeem myself

and just prove that I'm back in the game for good.

So, yeah, grabbed my tyre and ran like hell.

Not long, not much more.

Pulling the heaviest 52-kg tyre,

Onyiuke finishes in a time of 36 minutes 59 seconds.

Durant makes it back dead-on 47 minutes...

..which leaves one recruit out on the course.

You know what DL stands for - Dead Last.

That is the worst place to be.

Do you have doubts about yourself right now?

Always.

At just 24, Sparks is no stranger to tests of endurance.

In 2013, I rowed across the Atlantic Ocean.

In 2014, I rowed across the Indian Ocean.

I got six Guinness World Records from that.

If I die, I love you, Mum.

During his time under the former Polish GROM instructor,

he made hard work of the 10km run.

Sparks, how are you hanging up?

I am hanging out, Reggie, out my arse.

Physically I've done lots of tough stuff before.

I've got to think, whatever comes my way, I will get through it,

no matter what, and I will never stop.

And he'll have to dig deep once again.

Sparks, I'm sorry to tell you,

but we're not too close to the finish line.

- You do realise that.
- Ak.

But you still want to continue on.

- Ak!
- OK, let's do it.

Look how close you are.

Look how close you are.

Give it all you've got, everything you've got left.

- Come on, Sparks, well done.
- Last bit, Sparky, go on, push it.

All the way, all the way...

- Yes, yes.
- Well done.

Sparks finishes in a time of 55 minutes.

Never been in that position of...

..not knowing how I was going to get through it.

So probably...

..it's the most mentally I've ever dug in.

Students, listen up.

Awesome performance by all of you.

I clearly stated that it was an individual event.

You made it into a teamwork evolution.

The men in this group chose the largest tyres,

except Mr Class Leader, Allan.

You were the class leader.

Your job is to make sacrifices.

Do I make myself clear?

Ak!

The girls, that was a good performance, good effort.

You will now move on to the next evolution.

This evolution is called peer evaluation.

The peer evaluation is designed to weed out any recruits

falling under the instructor's radar

during the real ROK UDT selection process.

Candidates are assessed by their fellow recruits on a weekly basis.

The exercise is designed to motivate candidates

to continually up their game

in an effort to avoid being voted bottom peer.

Answer honestly.

Parrott, who would you most not like on your team, and why?

Allan, because he gets too much, he gets too stressed.

I think he just needs to calm down a bit, and it stresses me out.

Allan. I struggle with his leadership skills.

I pick Allan. I think he's a really lovely guy,

but he struggles physically.

More than halfway down the line,

and at the moment, every single recruit has chosen Allan

as the person they'd least like to have on their team.

This has got to be difficult for Allan right now.

Sparks.

I pick Mok, just because

I think she struggles with the weighted marches.

At the moment, I'm in love with powerlifting.

I love showing that women can be powerful.

Mok struggled in the concrete block run,

under the South African recce's veteran,

and didn't excel during the Polish GROM training.

Mok, do you want to quit?

No, sir.

I think I have what it takes physically to be here.

I train in multiple disciplines.

I think my mental strength is what will help me.

She's now been identified as one of the weaker members of the team,

and is at risk of being dismissed from the process.

Allan, who would you least like on your team and why?

Mok, because she is the least emotionally stable person here.

With a total of three votes for Mok and six for Allan,

they are the only two recruits to receive nominations.

Allan and Mok, step forward.

The sign to my right in Korean says hadan pieo,

which means bottom peer.

Go to that sign, stay under there until further instructions. Move!

Class dismissed.

As their punishment, Allan and Mok are publicly shamed

in front of the rest of their peers.

If you're describing Allan as one of the weaker links,

how would you describe Mok?

Allan is getting on my radar because he sucks,

but then, Mok, she's just like in between,

not in the top performance or in the bottom performance.

that's why the class picked her out.

OK, so what is this separation going to do to our recruits?

Is it going to separate them permanently?

I'm not planning on punishing these guys physically.

I'm going to let it sink in,

this is more painful because it's more mental.

They're going to be embarrassed.

They know that the class not necessarily hates them,

but lacks respect.

Just to let you know, whatever happens,

I don't hold anything against you at all.

Cool, the same.

- Oh, they probably feel
- BLEEP,
- stood underneath that sign at the moment.

And I can't blame them.

I would. At this point in the competition,

we've all really got to push and work together as a team,

otherwise we're just going to crumble.

Yeah, if I didn't think my team wanted to work with me,

it would really hurt,

and then you're sort of on the back foot then,

trying to prove your position, which is not a nice place to be in.

- WHISPERS:
- I'm not ready to go home yet. No, no, no.

After two hours, they re-join the group.

Now, only one challenge stands

between the recruits and the final parade,

where anyone can be sent home.

It's time for the last drill

under their former South Korean special forces operative.

Down boat.

Down boat.

Down boat.

This next evolution...

..is extremely, extremely difficult.

For their final exercise the group will be back in their original crews

from the previous day for a 3.5km boat-carry race.

They'll need to carry the 49kg boat on their heads

and navigate around the mountainside

with an unforgiving 407-metre elevation

in the searing South African heat.

This is your time to show me what you've got.

This is our signature event.

It's the event that weeds most of the recruits out.

- Got it?
- ALL:
- Ak!

Suddenly, they're heading up this hill in this heat.

Running up this mountain is going to be very, very hot

and the weather is hot, so somebody might get heatstroke.

Prepare left boat, up boat.

So do you have your eyes on any recruits?

Mok and the class leader, Allan, and I'll be watching them very closely.

I hope they turn themselves around,

but that peer evaluation came with a little ass-kicking.

- Boat carry leaders, are you ready?
- BOTH:
- Ak!

Bust 'em.

Run.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Remember, they are burning up.

- We'll be fine.
- Get up there.

Come on, girls.

- Get closer.
- Come on, guys, let's take a bit, push a bit.

Guys, move it.

After 400 metres, the men have a slender lead.

What's it like working in a team when the team doesn't respect you?

I don't know, because my team do respect me.

Well, they voted you out.

- How does it feel?
- It feels good that I'm working with good people.

With a reinvigorated team leader Allan at the helm,

the men begin to pull away from the women's boat crew.

Come on, let's jog a bit.

Let's jog, come on.

Mok, I'm coming over, I'm coming over.

As the gap between the two boat crews widens,

Donoghue tries to motivate the women.

We've got this, girls.

We've got it.

But after almost 48 hours in and out of the thinking-man position,

they're finding it hard balancing the heavy boat on their heads

and maintaining a steady pace.

Four, five, six.

My neck. Slow it down.

It bounces on our heads, it kills.

Pick up the pace, Allan.

Durant, are you OK?

With 600 metres to go, the men have established an insurmountable lead.

Pick up the pace, Allan.

It'll all be over soon.

We're almost there, guys, come on.

Last jog to the corner, come on.

Jog to the corner, come on.

Let's go.

Allan is charging, he's driving the team forward,

and they've made it, they're here.

I don't know how.

Over here, over here.

Prepare to down boat.

Down boat.

Boat crew leader, let your guys hydrate.

Drink.

Meanwhile, the women are suffering under the scorching sun.

Downham, do you need to top up?

Replenishing fluid loss is vital to preventing dehydration,

because exercising in extreme temperatures can lead to heatstroke,

a deadly condition if not identified quickly.

We're just going to get to the top

because I don't want nobody quitting on me.

- Up boat.
- ALL:
- Up boat!

Ready.

Go. Go on, then, ladies.

Come on, guys.

Come on.

Hydrated, Donoghue and Mok motivate their team back into action.

Six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Left, left, left, right, left.

Come on, guys.

Let's go, come on. Get it up here.

Come on, girls.

- Straight.
- Hold it.

Come on.

Boat crew leader, set your boat down next to boat crew two.

OK. Keep forward, keep forward.

- Down boat.
- Prepare to down boat.

Down boat.

On your feet.

Boat crew two, you've won, congratulations.

Boat crew one, you lost.

I've seen what I needed to see.

The next time I see you will be at file parade.

Hydrate.

Well done.

We all worked our butts off in that,

and if anybody slacked, we would have known.

We wouldn't have finished.

I think teamwork-wise, we all worked really well together,

we all put a lot of effort in and motivated each other all the way up.

- Good job.
- I don't think I'm safe.

I'm the old geezer, quite clearly, I've had weaknesses.

Clearly stated by my recruits.

If they see it, the boss has got to see it too.

The nine recruits have survived two days of hell

at the hands of their South Korean special forces veteran.

It's now time to face Ken to find out who will be sent home.

You have been the toughest expert.

You dismissed one person, and four people walked away on the first day.

I knew that I was going to get some quitters

on the first day, definitely.

They quit because I hit their weak points.

Allan, he's the oldest guy in the class,

probably the least confident in the class.

I know he's trying, giving it 110%, and Allan's boat crew,

I think they took on board Allan's direction, and they made it work.

So if I had to pick one grey mate, it'd be Mok.

I think she lacks teamwork and that's why she had three votes.

Donoghue, she had a horrible time on the first day.

And she almost said the words, "I want to quit",

but for some reason she stopped.

To see her go from that, to bossing it on the tyre task -

in fact, winning it -

were you surprised, or is that what you expected?

I was surprised. I did not expect her to win the tyre exercise,

but she turned it 180 degrees.

Well, it's going to be tough to see one of them go,

so I'm looking forward to seeing your thoughts.

Now I need to talk about my shit list.

Allan, Mok, you are both on my list and you know why.

Mok, you need to change your attitude.

You need to strive for that top performance level.

Do you understand?

Ak.

Allan,

you have been hanging on a thread.

You are physically weak and you know it.

You guys know the drill. I need to cut some people.

You all did very well.

In the boat misery evolution, you showed leadership, teamwork,

most importantly, brotherhood.

You made me proud.

I'm not going to cut anybody.

I thank you for participating in this challenge with me,

and I wish you luck for your further training.

Farewell.

If he had cut me off the recruit side,

I'd have been really disappointed,

because I still feel I have a lot to give.

THEY LAUGH

We were a good team together,

so I was hoping that after today's performance,

everybody putting 100% in,

that that would be the outcome.

And I think he was fair.

UK women are tough.

- You really think?
- Yeah, I think they're tougher than UK men.

I haven't trained women in the military,

but training these girls up for the past two days,

I mean, they definitely changed my mind

about females being in special operations.

One of the main things that's keeping me going is definitely

the rest of the girls in the team.

They are all so, so strong and a few of us have had our weak points,

but we pick each other up and get each other to keep going.

You want to come in here? Come on in!

You're so sweaty!

Unfortunately I don't smell as bad as you guys!

- We stink.
- That's what you think!

That's not very nice.

Did you see that coming? Did you think someone was going home?

We gave everything.

Yeah, you both still pulled through,

you still completed it all, so...

He just doesn't want quitters.

Yeah. You're all tough as nails.

Well done.

All nine of us are an incredibly tight-knit group now,

and we're all nursing loads and loads of injuries.

But at the same time, we're in incredibly high spirits.

So we're sure that we're going to be able to push on together as a group

and just do our best.

Next time.

The nine remaining recruits face two veterans of GIGN...

Fighting stance.

..an elite unit of the French police.

Here, here, come on.

Their physical and mental strength will be challenged.

Unfortunately, you're going home.

And they will face a selection method

that will test every ounce of their nerves.
